A truly beautiful automobile. Here's a shot of one I took at a recent Art Deco car exhibit at the NC Museum of Art. This is a 1938.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, for me it is the original Jaguar XKE roadster, bar none, it is an ageless design.

Can't argue that. Even the Comandatore (Enzo Ferrari) said so. Had a chance to buy a nice 65 E-type in the 70s for $2,800 as I recall. Took it for a test drive on the beltline, got up to a hundred or so and stamped on the binders as I came up on traffic - nothing. You know how it actually feels like it's going faster when you hit the brakes and nothing happens? Having disassembled the rear subframe of an E-type to work on the rear brakes (many hours), I knew how hard it was to maintain, and returned the car without purchasing it. Very, very big mistake.

Yes I thought about buying one in the mid 70s, V-12 roadster for about $6000, great condition, except it needed a major tune-up. When I found out what a major tune up cost (over a $1000) I walked await, not because it was $1000 but because a mechanic said it had to be done about once a year
and back then Jags were very unreliable and required a lot of maintenance.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Personally, if someone gave it to me, I would gleefully accept it then put it up for auction!
